TIE tide Of immigration for years
has been flowing westward. Many
sturdy adventurous youth of the east
kas turned his face to the setting sun
and sought home on the broad plains
Of the west But it has not been so
with the pleasure seeker. Those who
have spent their summers from home
have sought pleasure and recreation at
the beach along the Atlantic, at the
springs among the mountains of Vir-
ginia and the Carolinas or at the north
or on the Great Lakes. Now a food
tide of these are coming westward too.
Every year swells the number and the
time is near at hand when to be ac-
quainued with ones own land, to be a
travelled gentlemen at home he must
have made trips across the continent to
the far west where thoughts are bound
less and homes are free. The attrac-
tons of the old resorts have grown
insipid, dull, monotonous, the west alone
presents new fields, new pleasures and
new scenes.

SOMETHING ABOUT BALD HEADS.

"Bald headed men die sooner than
those who possess a full head Of hair, .

day. "Then, doctor, your life is short
ened, " interposed the reporter.

er my Uranium, dc the next thing.
and use a warm cap. i never 60 bald
headed, no matter where am, and by
that means Ineyer take cold. The ma
iority of men who have bald heads
wear nothing to protect the exposed
surface, not even a wig. The result is,
many Of them take cold and go off
with pneumonia or contract some deep
seated disease like bronchitis or con
sumption. Yet if ] told bald headed
man to wear something warm on the
exposed spot he would, nine times out
of ten, pay no attention to my warning.
1t is a growing cause of increased
mortality, and deserves great attention
both from scientists and empirical
laymen.
"Bald heads are the sign posts Of a
high @sthetical civilization and at the
same time the epitaphs Of physical
degeneration. Luxury, ease, comfort,
high living and hereditary character

bald heads. If the future race is TO be
devoid Of hair, then it must necessarily
be short lived one, because more
susceptible to sickness. / have noted
many cases Of pneumonia, and where
the patient is male over 40 years old
the proportion is over one-half in favor

wise provisions made to insure perfect
physical comfort never contemplated
period in the worlds history when a
man should go about with his head

it repeatedly sooner or later pays the
penalty.

with the scalp exposed is merely from

cause of any false notions about how

THE Carson City, Nevada, Tribune
comes out openly and boldly and OPP
poses the annexation scheme of Idaho
to Nevada, and declares that the par
ty who fathers the scheme is no friend
to the state. 1t says furthermore that
two-thirds Of the members of the Leg
islature who signed a memorial to
Congress last winter asking annexa-
ton will now oppose it and they can
satisfy Congress that it will not be of
advantage to the state to pass Senator
Stewards bill. We have expected OPP
position from this very source, Carson
City knows that in the event that Sem
ator Stewart carries out his plans the
capitol will be removed from that city
to Winnemucca or possibly Ogden,
and it knows further more of the grasp
ing greed of its Senators. If the bills
they purpose to push through the next
Congress become laws they will COB
bic up SO much of the public lands of
Nevada and Idaho as to check the tide
of immigration and place their lands
in the hand of a few to the detriment
OF the many seeking homes in fresh
fields and pastures green. But the
Tribune does not go beyond THE News
in its opposition, The move portends
no good to the people and it needs no
prophetic finger to point out those
who have axes to grind in advocating
the scheme.

Montana Letter.
GLENDALE, MONTANA, July 9TH.

GLENDALE, MONTANA, July 9th.
Ed. News The Brewery here burn
ed last night, by which a man named
Jacob Shoenaner lost his life. The
unfortunate man retired about 1890
in an intoxicated condition, and left a
candle burning which was in little
iron candle-stick such as miners use
in underground work; said candle
stick was stuck in the wall and when
the candle burned low il fell through
to the floor on some clothing by which
means the fire was swiftly spread
throughout the building, and all was
swept away in the brief period Of for.
ty minutes. On account of the in
tense heat the entire body of the un.
fortunate man has not as vet been
found. A part of the skull, the chest
and part Of the limbs have been found
but in an unrecognizable condition;
only that parties knew of the man be-
ing in the building and said man be
ing missing, reveals the sad fate OF
the poor unfortunate victim, who has
no relatives here, but being honorable
in his dealings has made for himself
many friends who to-day, after the in.
quest conducted according to instruc.
lions of the coroner, DIR Jones beino
the physician present, win place the
remains, although in fragments, in a
coffin and carry them to the cemetery
on the hill Never since Glendale first
sprung up has such horrifying and
heartrending scene occurred.
This sad occurrance brings to my
mind again the great need Of strictly
adhering to temperance, of which
shall write for your next issue.

THE time was when railroad build

THE time was when railroad build
ing was matter of pick, shovels,
WheeLbarrows and hand labor.-Then
the construction of 100 miles of rail
road by one company in single year
was a wonderful performance. Now
steam and horse power have suppressed
ed old methods and it is hardly mat
ter of a moment. when line reaching
half way across the continent is built
in single season. The new Montana
and Helena extension of the Manitoba
railway, now under construction, bids
fair to eclipse all previous efforts in
that direction. Sixty-fiye hundred men
and 5000 teams, force large enough
to be working on 125 mile of grade
at the same time, are making the dirt
fly at such rapid rate that the 18th
day Of September will see the last rail
of the 700 miles laid, giving Helena,

to their cases, OF which it is stated
there are large number in different

says:
